Tiger Woods has made it official; he and Lindsey Vonn are dating.

Woods made it official on his Facebook page by posting four pictures of himself and Vonn and followed it with a caption saying, “This season has been great so far and I’m happy with my wins at Torrey and Doral. Something nice that’s happened off the course was meeting Lindsey Vonn. Lindsey and I have been friends for some time, but over the last few months we have become very close and are now dating. We thank you for your support and for respecting our privacy. We want to continue our relationship, privately, as an ordinary couple and continue to compete as athletes.”

Vonn won a gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics. The two have been rumored to be dating although nothing was really confirmed, until yesterday.

Talking about their relationship, Vonn said, “I guess it wasn’t a well-kept secret but yes, I am dating Tiger Woods. Our relationship evolved from a friendship into something more over these past few months and it has made me very happy. I don’t plan on addressing this further as I would like to keep that part of my life between us, my family and close friends. Thank you for understanding and your continued support! xo LV.”

Last week, Woods’ ex-wife, Elin Nordegren revealed she was dating billionaire, Chris Cline.
